Program participants are able to live on campus year round. The SPS housing contract during the academic year covers from the start of Orientation through the Monday after Commencement. SPS students are permitted to stay on campus through all or part of the summer whether or not they are taking classes. Students taking at least 2 classes during the summer may be eligible for financial aid assistance with the housing fee. Returning students leaving campus for the summer are permitted to keep their belongings in their room over the summer at no charge provided they return their key before leaving. Students enrolled in summer classes may use the child care funds as they do during the academic year. Students who remain on campus but do not enroll in summer courses are responsible for their own child care arrangements and costs.
